The Mary Wallopers at O2 Victoria Warehouse Manchester

The Mary Wallopers are bringing their infectious folk energy to Manchester on Friday 23 October 2026, with doors opening at 19:00 at the O2 Victoria Warehouse. Known for their joyous, sing-along approach to traditional and contemporary folk music, this Irish outfit creates an atmosphere that's part concert, part celebration – perfect for anyone looking for an evening of genuine craic and lively tunes. Whether you're a folk aficionado or just after a night out with brilliant vibes, this gig's one you won't want to miss.

The O2 Victoria Warehouse sits in the heart of Castlefield, Manchester's historic quarter, and it's an ideal spot for live music. This converted Victorian warehouse combines exposed brick and industrial character with proper modern acoustics, creating an intimate yet energetic setting that works brilliantly for folk acts. The venue's right near the Castlefield Canal Basin too, so you can grab a pre-gig drink or bite at one of the surrounding bars and restaurants.

Getting to the gig is straightforward – Deansgate-Castlefield tram stop is just a few minutes' walk away, or there's decent car parking nearby if you're driving in. Arrive early to soak up the pre-gig atmosphere in Castlefield, grab some food, and bag a decent spot. Expect a packed crowd and don't be surprised if you're singing along by the end of the night – The Mary Wallopers have a special way of bringing everyone together.
